Video: The story behind our coverage of the Haiti evacuation

Seattlepi.com reporter Levi Pulkkinen and photographer Josh Trujillo spent a day and night Sunday on board a massive C-17 Globemaster III traveling from Pierce County’s McChord Air Force Base to rescue American and American visa-holding evacuees from the earthquake-battered Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince.

FOX News anchor Shepard Smith interviewed Trujillo about his experience in a four-minute live segment on the cable news channel this afternoon. Trujillo took the photos featured in this gallery and now seen all over the world.
